Job 1:6-22
6
Now there was a day when
the sons of God came to
present themselves before
the LORD, and Satan also
came among them.
Job 1:1-22
7
And the LORD said to
Satan, “From where do you
come?” So Satan answered
the LORD and said, “From
going to and fro on the earth,
and from walking back and
forth on it.”
Job 1:1-22
8
Then the LORD said to
Satan, “Have you
considered My servant Job,
that there is none like him on
the earth, a blameless and
upright man, one who fears
God and shuns evil?”
Job 1:1-22
9
So Satan answered the
LORD and said, “Does Job
fear God for nothing?
Job 1:1-22
10
Have You not made a hedge
around him, around his
household, and around all that
he has on every side? You
have blessed the work of his
hands, and his possessions
have increased in the land.
Job 1:1-22
11
But now, stretch out Your hand
and touch all that he has, and he
will surely curse You to Your face!”
12 And the LORD said to Satan,
“Behold, all that he has is in your
power; only do not lay a hand on
his person.” So Satan went out
from the presence of the LORD.
Job 1:1-22
13
Now there was a day when his
sons and daughters were eating
and drinking wine in their oldest
brother’s house; 14 and a
messenger came to Job and said,
“The oxen were plowing and the
donkeys feeding beside them,
Job 1:1-22
15
when the Sabeans raided
them and took them away—
indeed they have killed the
servants with the edge of the
sword; and I alone have
escaped to tell you!”
Job 1:1-22
16
While he was still speaking,
another also came and said,
“The fire of God fell from
heaven and burned up the
sheep and the servants, and
consumed them; and I alone
have escaped to tell you!”
Job 1:1-22
17
While he was still speaking,
another also came and said,
“The Chaldeans formed three
bands, raided the camels and
took them away, yes, and killed
the servants with the edge of
the sword; and I alone have
escaped to tell you!”
Job 1:1-22
18
While he was still
speaking, another also came
and said, “Your sons and
daughters were eating and
drinking wine in their oldest
brother’s house,
Job 1:1-22
19
and suddenly a great wind
came from across the
wilderness and struck the four
corners of the house, and it fell
on the young people, and they
are dead; and I alone have
escaped to tell you!”
Job 1:1-22
20
Then Job arose, tore his
robe, and shaved his head;
and he fell to the ground and
worshiped.
Job 1:1-22
And he said: “Naked I came
from my mother’s womb, And
naked shall I return there. The
LORD gave, and the LORD has
taken away; Blessed be the
name of the LORD.” 22 In all this
Job did not sin nor charge God
with wrong.

Luke 13:1-5
1
There were present at that
season some who told Him
about the Galileans whose
blood Pilate had mingled with
their sacrifices.
Luke 13:1-5
2
And Jesus answered and
said to them, “Do you
suppose that these Galileans
were worse sinners than all
other Galileans, because
they suffered such things?
Luke 13:1-5
3
I tell you, no; but unless you
repent you will all likewise
4
perish. Or those eighteen on
whom the tower in Siloam fell
and killed them, do you think
that they were worse sinners
than all other men who dwelt in
Jerusalem?
Luke 13:1-5
5
I tell you, no; but unless
you repent you will all
likewise perish.”
